Gents,
Here it is, with (hopefully!) all our collective changes and formatting tweaks and (etc) incorporated. Note that this one is entitled 9-7 so please be sure to work from, and refer to, THIS version going forward.
PLEASE, thoughget back to me ASAP, cuz I want to start sending this puppy out first thing tomorrow, OK?
Speaking of which: Ive already placed calls to 15 editors this afternoon, and have spoken to seven of thoseall sounded intrigued, and a couple of those emphatically so; one told me hed been looking for someone to write a book about Anonymous himself, and another said Fuck yeahsold! Send it, cant wait. Another had just today read about the Cole Stryker thing, so had Anonymous freshly in his brain My process (I think I explained this to one of you already) is that I dont send it to somebody until Ive actually connected w/ them on the phonea ton of stuff comes in to these editors, so in my view its crucial to connect directly or else the thing will get buried. Anyway: theyll be going out in that fashion tomorrow morning, and were off to a good start, based on the responses I had today.
Ill give you a rundown of names tomorrow, once Ive connected with more. I still have to draft my pitch letter, but Im going to keep it brief.
Thanks, guy
Dan
